COMMENTS
| Arises in connection with the expansion (e i)^(pi i) = e^(pi i) * i^(pi i) = -1 * exp(pi i log i) = -exp(pi i * pi/2 i) = -exp(-pi^2/2) = -0.00719188335582636560780136639...
One has to be careful about branches of multivalued complex functions. By definition (e i)^(pi i) is exp(pi i log(e i)) [using any of the branches of log] = exp(pi i (1 + pi i/2 + 2 n pi i)) [ for any integer n ] = - exp(- pi^2/2 - 2 n pi^2). There is no imaginary part in any of its branches. If n=0 we get (-1) times the present constant.
